290 Williams Road, Toorak, Vic 3142

Occupying an elevated position in Melbourne's most prestigious suburb opposite the Como precinct, this elegant and gracious Victorian residence is part of Royal Terrace, the legendary row of four National Trust-classified terrace homes, built in 1890.

Terraced gardens introduce this magnificent residence with two intricate lace- trimmed verandahs, while elegant interiors evoke extravagant boom time architecture complete with expansively proportioned rooms, soaring ceilings, elaborate cornicing, ceiling roses, Baltic pine floorboards and marble mantels.

Renovated and adapted for modern families, this graceful home has three living rooms, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, including an ensuite and an oversized remote-controlled double garage with rear access.

A breathtaking arched hallway leads to the formal living room with traditional fireplace and then to the informal living. Beyond the marble bathroom, a well-equipped granite and Miele kitchen overlooks the meals area, while opening through French doors to a tranquil courtyard for relaxed al fresco entertaining.

Upstairs three bedrooms include the refined main suite with a walk-in wardrobe, marble ensuite, private verandah and treed views through full-height windows.

Two more robed bedrooms, including one with a walk-in robe and sliding doors to a study, share the central marble bathroom.

Ideally located to take advantage of its position close to Toorak Village, the dining and retail offerings of Chapel Street and South Yarra, with public transport just metres away, and easy access to parks, Yarra walking and cycling tracks, City Link to the CBD and a range of prestigious schools, this home delivers an unmatched lifestyle.

More features of this alluring property are the Euro laundry, plantation shutters, and plentiful storage.
